The better side of the game

Grueller

I have been reading about the dark side of the game and sledging, diving, suspensions and cards of all colours for the last while so I thought that this thread might help us realise that our games are not all bad.

I spotted this photo on the Wexford gaa banter facebook page and thought it might be a good place to start

It may not be as it appears:

This was a classy gesture from the Laois footballers:

The man in red and black

Played a few matches here in Canada this year, all very good natured games. So much so that if anyone got a bad injury the game just stopped right away and both teams went over to see if the player was ok. When the player got back up after a couple of minutes we all turned to the ref and asked what to do, he didn't know what to do as nobody had hit the ball out or anything so just said play on and the nearest player just hit it up the field!

You wouldn't want to be soft like that in Championship though :P

The reception Noel McGrath got when he came on yesterday, from Tipp fans, Galway fans and neutrals was quite something.
